Speakup not talking on grml 1.1 softsynth

[Ernst-Dieter Wedekind]

Hi listers,
I recently installed grml 1.1 on my harddisk but I couldn't get speakup to 
talk through softsynth. When I used the cdrom it talked through my Apollo 
Hardsynth as well as through my softsynth. I went through all the 
configuration files of speech-dispatcher, flite and espeak but I can't seem 
to find any difference between the Cdrom and the installation. Anyone any 
idea as to the reason? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Ernst
